Philadelphia Flyers - Columbus Blue Jackets: NHL match betting tip and bets

Current form

After losing to Montreal (2:3), the team went to visit the Rangers, where they unexpectedly showed a great game and rehabilitated themselves in front of the fans, defeating the cops with a score of 8:5. In particular, it is worth noting the entire first link, which scored a total of 12 points. Returning to the home arena, the Flyers consolidated their success with another victory, snatching it from the Islanders in a shootout (4:3). Everything was heading for a confident victory, but the islanders equalized the score just a minute before the final whistle, which created additional problems for the ice masters. It is impossible not to mention goalkeeper Ersson, who deflected 37 shots out of 40.

Next, the hooligans went to play away from Ottawa, where they were close to their third victory in a row. The team showed a very active offensive game and created serious pressure on the opponent throughout the meeting, but it was not fully realized, which led to a failure in overtime (3:4). Goalkeeper Fedotov turned out to be not as reliable as his teammate, deflecting all 84% of shots.

Current form

Columbus picked up excellent form at the very end of the regular season and continues to beat all opponents on its way, and the winning streak has already reached four matches in a row, all of which ended in regular time. The Blue Jackets played at home, where they confidently defeated Ottawa (5:2), and then snatched Victoria from Buffalo with a one-goal difference (3:2). Continuing to perform in their native walls, the jackets fought with the current leader of the Eastern Conference in the person of Washington and defeated him dry (7-0). It is difficult to even single out any of the players, since almost all distinguished themselves by their effective actions.

After that, the Blue Jackets went on a visit to the capitals, where they only consolidated their success by winning another landslide victory (4:1). Once again, Fantilli's striker scored a double. It seems that the team is still seriously counting on getting into the playoffs. At the moment, the gap from the eighth place is only three points, and if Montreal does not score more points, and Columbus wins two more victories, it will receive a ticket to the draw.
